Competition!

I don't know why I'm always competing with people who shouldn't bother me.

Sometimes, I like to ask myself, "Why is it about proving to the world, that if you've lost something good, you're worth a lot more and that you already have whatever it is that you're worth in your hands? Why is it always about being the one with the upper hand? Why is it about never giving in and fighting with others.. with yourself.. your conscience.. to reach the goal you've set for yourself.? Why is it about wanting people to look at you and know that you're not just another face.. that you're not forgettable? Why is it always about your EGO? Why can't you look past it for once.. for your own good? Why on earth does it matter to you that your rival walked two steps ahead of you overnight? Why do I make the mistakes I do? Why do I force myself to learn the lessons that I do?"

All of us end up competing with a lot of others. Clothes, boyfriends, friends, looks, grades... Im one of them. But seriously, it doesn't help. All it does, in fact, is make one feel worse.So the next time you try to get too competitive, count your blessings; more importantly its competition with yourself that counts the most. :)
